Just be thankful you don’t live in L.A.

I do subscribe to the any given Sunday theory, and think the Jets would win about 1 in 5 over the Pats. After watching Rex Ryans luck this season, I have no reason to believe it will not continue.

That was funny, of course if they don’t come up with a CBA it maybe September 12th 1 PM 2012.

Actually the loss of Damien Woody and Drew Coleman, after the recent loss of Jim Leonhard could really hurt the Jets this week.

[kevkrom]

the probable is that the Jets lose by at least 20 points, again, like they’ve been doing in MA lately

Especially since they appear to be spending more time flapping their gums than prepping for the game.

“I remember last week all y’all experts telling us the Seahawks couldn’t win...Jets over Pats 26-24.”

Yeah way to misremember the not too distant past sparky, this is what I wrote last week:

“The Saints maybe the best team in the NFC right now and the Seahawks don't even deserve to be in the playoffs. However, installing a team as a 10 point road favorite is a little like declaring a ship unsinkable before her maiden voyage. “

It was a hedge, okay? I had the Seahawks at least covering the spread.

Jets winning is a bold choice, gotta respect that. Don't agree with it, but gotta respect it.

Oh, and as a side note you haven't gone to the blog and voted in the poll, because no one has chosen the Jets yet. You can be the first.

It’s called hate. Part of what makes Steelers-Ravens games so awesome. That and the fact that they’re two nearly identical teams in both style and quality. Often time when watching them I wish I were a fan of some third team so I wouldn’t have a rooting interest, when these teams play it is just awesome football exactly the way I like to see it played.

I don’t know, Rex seems to gain power when he flaps his gums. He really is perfect for a NY football team, he never leaves the press bored and he doesn’t actually care what they say.

What does being a Wild Card have to do with playing on a short week? The Jets (who played last Saturday) could easily have played the Saturday game this week and the Ravens played on Sunday.

What does being a Wild Card have to do with playing on a short week?

Did ya miss the first 2 words of my comment?....I believe.

Obviously, I was incorrect. I likened it to the baseball wild card playoffs.

Steelers-Ravens is going to be a war. I'm figuring that there won't be much left other than a fine red mist hanging over the field after the game.

Ditto the Pats-Jets. IF GB winds up playing the Bears next week (a good possibility), that'll be a war, too. None of these teams like each other very much.

The Super Bowl might be played by the practice squads.

[safeasthebanks]

So you're saying that if you (or anyone) puts "I believe" before a statement, I'm not allowed to point out that what you "believe" is incorrect?

Ooooookay......

"GET OFF OF ME!"

"It's been a bad week and frankly I don't really care that much about this weekend's games because my Eagles will be watching them on TV."

You have made my week. Your the last of the music when I hear Eagle fans crying. Actually when it comes to the team they are fun to watch. It is the Eagle fans that are the turnoff.

BTW, nice blog.

If you didn’t know how strong Lynch was, you might think the video was doctored the way Porter rockets off of Lynch. As a Seahawk fan, I’m hoping for good things to happen tomorrow in Chicago. And if the Seahawks and Packers should meet next week at Quest field for the NFC title, well, FUGGETTABOUTIT! Seattle will be headed for Dallas. :)

I’ve lived for the last 30 years near Seattle, so I know enough to NEVER bet against the Hawks!

But they’re gonna need a little luck tomorrow.

I take that back. They’re gonna need ALOT of luck tomorrow!
My feeling is Bears by 3...
